25 Mar 2025 Società Cooperativa Culture (CoopCulture)Colosseum tickets: CoopCulture 7 million EUR, around 20 million in total over ticket bots ItalyMisleading advertising and pricing €7m

The Colosseum's ticketing service provider did not prevent tour operators from buying up basic tickets in bulk using bots, and itself reserved large allocations for more expensive packages; as a result, visitors could hardly find regular tickets. The AGCM imposed a fine of 7 million EUR on CoopCulture and further fines on six tour providers (including Tiqets, GetYourGuide, Musement), almost 20 million EUR in total.

What organisations can take from it

Anyone selling a scarce allocation must actively prevent bot purchases and must not steer access towards expensive packages.
